The fate of the world sometimes hangs in the celestial balance between RuPaul’s Drag Race season 17 queen Lucky Starzzz’s giant breasts.

“I like to kind of look like a crazy character, sometimes with big boobs that are not literal boobs. Maybe cherries, coconuts cut open with straws coming out, planet Earths that are cracked because the world is ending,” the Cuba-born, Miami-reared queen explains to Entertainment Weekly of her various aesthetic inspirations, often displayed in the form of intricately constructed pieces on her body. Sometimes, she’s a gay SpongeBob navigating the depths of Grindr. The next day, maybe she’ll sport an asteroid on her head as it careens toward geographical globes on her chest.

As much as her ambitious fashion catapults her creativity into the cosmos, there’s also a seismic battle waging in her mind back down here on terra firma, as Lucky can admittedly find inspiration in just about anything, from leaves on the ground to “crazy crap” — literally.

“Oh my God, poop!” she says when asked about the most random element that’s inspired an entire look, confirming that, “at some point, I will become a poop princess.” In the meantime, she likes “a bad bitch silhouette on the craziest, most colorful character you can think of.”

That approach has given her an unmistakable identity on the local drag scene, even if it wasn’t the easiest to fit in at first. When you think of bold Miami drag, you think of high-glam mugs like season 16’s Morphine Love Dion, lip-sync assassins of the Mhi’ya Iman Le’Paige variety, or the elegant pageantry of season 15 Miss Congeniality winner Malaysia Babydoll Foxx — all past contestants Lucky knows, but hesitates to say her style fits in with in Florida.

Creative vision aside, the sisterhood Lucky feels now is strong, as she says Malaysia even helped her pay for the oversized baggage she took with her to Drag Race, so she was able to display her larger-than-life fashions on the Main Stage.

“She helped me with a dress for a runway, she helped me with bags, she helped me a lot. When I couldn’t afford the bags, when I thought I was gonna be stuck at the airport and not make it to Drag Race, she was there to help me with the money, honey. Trust,” Lucky confirms. “She really is Miss Congeniality. And you know what? Mhi’ya helps me a lot with shots at the club!”

She also says she met Morphine at a drag competition, and that she initially thought the makeup queen of season 16 “did not like” her. “When I got on, she was so sweet,” Lucky adds. “Very welcoming and helpful with advice. She’s super sweet!”

Despite all of that effort she puts into her looks, which often include reframing children’s cartoons into beautiful nightmares, Lucky’s drag shouldn’t be as shocking as it might appear on the surface. In fact, “this is not drag,” Lucky says while nestled under what can only be described as a waterfall of pearl pigtails flowing forth from a candy-wrapper fish tail from space. “This is just me, in my natural form.”

RuPaul’s Drag Race season 17 continues Fridays at 8 p.m. on MTV. Watch EW’s full interview with Lucky above.
